BOSTON, July 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Sustainability Roundtable, Inc. (SR Inc), which works to be the world’s most respected strategic advisor in enterprise decarbonization, announced today the appointment of Charlie Forcey to its C-Suite as Chief Technology Officer. This key addition enhances both SR Inc’s Sustainable Business & Enterprise Roundtable (SBER) strategic advisory services and SR Inc’s Net Zero Consortium for Buyers (NZCB), the leading platform for corporate aggregated procurement of utility scale clean energy in North America and Europe. 

Charlie brings over two decades of experience in enterprise development with a specialization in digitalizing business workflows. Charlie’s background reflects his seasoned leadership in leveraging big data, artificial intelligence, and enterprise software to accelerate the transition to a sustainable economy.

As the first Chief Technology Officer at SR Inc, Charlie is poised to drive technological innovation as the company continues to deliver cutting-edge decarbonization solutions to its Member-Clients. He brings a technologist’s perspective to the opportunity to align product and market strategy with sustainable business imperatives. Charlie will lead in digitalizing SR Inc’s membership-based strategic consulting services and aggregated procurement processes to enhance SR Inc’s leadership in decarbonization-as-a-service to scores of world-leading Member-Clients including Akamai Technologies, Autodesk, Biogen, Bloomberg, Cadence, Cisco, Intuit, Juniper Networks, MilliporeSigma, PTC, Takeda Pharmaceuticals, Teradyne, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Synopsys, and Wayfair. 

Before joining SR Inc, Charlie served as Principal Software Engineer at FinQuery, where he modernized the company’s web application and expanded the engineering team. His tenure at Logikcull involved leading a data engineering team on a machine learning roadmap, and at Kajabi, he implemented scalable strategies for high-volume applications. He also helped found Amply Energy as its initial CTO and led Energize360, promoting energy efficiency and solar adoption.

Charlie’s expertise in enterprise software for sustainability was first honed at Advanced Energy Economy (now Advanced Energy United), where he led the engineering team to create the PowerSuite product line, providing consistent, timely access to renewable energy dockets from fifty states. This role underscored his commitment to environmental sustainability and his ability to handle large-scale data challenges for the renewable energy market. Charlie has also served as chair of a municipal energy committee, where he played a pivotal role in negotiating one of New Hampshire’s first large-scale power purchase agreements.

His journey into enterprise computing began in academia. After earning a Bachelor of Arts from Princeton and an MA and M.Phil. from Columbia, Charlie founded Historicus, Inc. to explore the potential of digitalization for historical research and pedagogy. Over the next decade, he led his team in creating award-winning digital humanities projects for universities and publishers.
